"Twins Should Go To War"

On a taped episode of Hardball, Matt Damon made a comment about the war in Iraq. He said, "And if you're gonna send people to war, ahh, if, if we all get together and decide we need to go to war, then that needs to be shared by everybody. You know, and if the President has daughters who are of age then maybe they should go too."

Matt, Matt, Matt!! You're making way too many assumptions there. First of all, you're assuming that Bush actually cares about what's happening. He doesn't!! He only cares about how he looks, and that's with the assumption that he's actually clean and sober enough to care. Yeah right!! If you believe that, I have a building in Iraq to sell you. Oh wait, it's probably rubble by now. Will you accept a raincheck?

Second of all, you're assuming that Bush is actually willing to accept responsibility for his role in all of this. He doesn't. He passes the buck every chance he gets. He can't even keep the reasons straight for why we went to war in the first place. Is he going to take responsibility for the fact that the Iraq war is an illegal war? He can't do that because that would mean that he'd have to acknowledge that he violated the Constitution. You know, that pesky little thing that contains a clause in which only the Congress has the power and authority to declare war. Oops!!

Last but not least, you're assuming that he's willing to make an "ultimate sacrifice" of his own. He wasn't willing to make the ultimate sacrifice himself during the Vietnam war. He's certainly not going to sacrifice his drunken disgraces (daughters) for his War on Terra. For those of you who can actually pronounce it correctly, it's Terror. But don't tell George that because you might send him into a tizzy and he will run around the White House screaming FUCK all day. That or he might choke on a pretzel again!!

So you see Matt, George Bush isn't going to commit to his fair share of sacrifice in this war. He isn't going to send the twin drunks to do his dirty work. That of course is with the assumption that he's coherent enough to understand the words that are coming out of your mouth!! Rich little southern boys pretending to be President who are born with silver spoons up their noses don't have to accept responsibility for anything. They just have their daddies clean up their messes while they find some other country to shit upon.
